What color is Dulux Twilight Cinders 2?

Use it on a study wall, bedroom cabinetry, or a dining-room accent where its depth can ground lighter furnishings. Pair Twilight Cinders 2 with soft off-whites, pale greyed lilacs, natural oak, brushed nickel, or black metal for a considered, layered finish.
